5th Edition SRD Update?

Hey, does anyone know when the 5th Edition Compendium will get updated again? It's still missing a bunch of spells and monsters.

Everything in the 5e Compendium has been released by wizards under the OGL. Any future updates would require WotC to release the material under an OGL.
But, it's missing STANDARD spells, like hex, and nromal monsters like the blights
Sorry, I just presumed that everythign from the MM and the PHB were included in the OGl

WotC released a free  SRD . Any information in it was made available in the compendium. Anything else is the IP of WotC and can't legally be made publicly available.
As Franky H. mentioned, the 5th Edition SRD Compendium can only contain information (such as race and class options, feats, spells, treasure, monsters, etc.) that is located within WoTC's recently-released SRD . If WoTC releases more SRD content under an Open Gaming License, you can count on that being added to the Compendium.
Yeah, it's annoying that the SRD doesn't have everything but it's not a limitation on Roll20's part. I've found a comprimise by creating an NPC with similar stats to something in the SRD and then going in and modifying the NPC slightly.
I feel everyone should know that wotc did NOT put everything in the compendium for a reason... IF you knew you could go to the compendium and find everything there... Then why would I ever go buy the book?  This gives wotc the ability to still make money for their matierials.  Meaning the rest of the art, spells, text, etc.  We need Wotc to be able to come out with more, so the compendium MUST NEVER have it all. Just good business!
